How many lessons will I need to reach my goals? This varies enormously from person to person. If you have musical ears and are able to pick up new speech patterns easily you may get results more quickly. It very much depends on how much practice you do outside the lessons. If you only practice during the lessons then it will take longer to achieve your goals.
